Spirostane-Type Saponins from Dracaena fragrans Yellow Coast
2015
Three steroidal glycosides were isolated from the bark of Dracaena fragrans (L.) Ker Gawl. « Yellow Coast », and a fourth from the roots and the leaves. Their structures were characterized on the basis of extensive 1D and 2D NMR experiments and mass spectrometry, and by comparison with NMR data of the literature. These saponins have the spirostane-type skeleton and are reported in this species for the first time.
A comparative study of the population pharmacokinetics of gentamicin and amikacin in newborn patients
1993
SUMMARY The population kinetics of gentamicin and amikacin were studied comparatively in newborn patients with a similar range of gestation age (37.9 ± 2.9 and 36.7 ± 3.6 weeks), postnatal age (13.8 ± 7.4 and 16.7 ± 7 days) and weight (2.85 ± 0.57 and 2.72 ± 0.75 kg), undergoing routine therapeutic monitoring of their serum levels. Individual kinetic analysis of serum drug levels was done using a single-compartment model. The population model employed assumes the existence of residual variability in the serum concentrations and interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetic parameters. The clearance and the apparent distribution volume were calculated for each patient using a two-stage …
Steroidal Saponins from the Fruits of Cestrum ruizteranianum
2011
Seven spirostane and furostane-type glycosides were isolated from the aqueous methanolic extract of the fruits of Cestrum ruizteranianum and characterized mainly by 2D NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. These known saponins belong to the Δ5-spirostene and Δ5-furostene series and are reported in this species for the first time.
Acetogenins, Aporphinoids, and Azaanthraquinone from Annona cherimolia Seeds.
1989
We have isolated several known steroids, glycosides, isoquinoline, and azaanthraquinone alkaloids, and five acetogenins belonging to a new group of secondary metabolites, the bis-tetrahydrofuran gamma-lactones, from the seeds of ANNONA CHERIMOLIA. The azaanthraquinone alkaloid isolated was identified as cleistopholine. One new acetogenin is reported here: laherradurine; a second new one was isolated, but its structure has not been determined. The other three: cherimoline, dihydrocherimoline, and asimicine have already been reported.
Secoiridoids and Xanthones fromGentianella nitida
1996
From Gentianella nitida twelve known metabolites were isolated and identified by HPLC-UV and/or by spectroscopic methods as secologanoside, amaroswerin, amarogentin (secoiridoids), isoorientin (C-glucosylflavone), mangiferin, demethylbellidifolin 8-O-glucoside, norswertianine 1-O-glucoside, swertianine 1-O-primeveroside, swertianine 8-O-glucoside, norswertianine, demethylbellidifolin, and swertianine (xanthone glycosides and aglycones). Secologanoside is reported here for the first time in Gentianaceae species ; the antioxidant mangiferin was obtained as the major compound in good yield.
Cycloartane-type saponins from astragalus tmoleus var. tmoleus
2016
Five known cycloartane-type glycosides were isolated from the roots of A. tmoleus Boiss. var. tmoleus. The identification of these compounds was mainly achieved by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques and FABMS. The results of our studies confirm that triterpene saponins with the cycloartane-type skeleton might be chemotaxonomically significant for the genus Astragalus.
Antiasthmatic acetophenones - an in vivo study on structure activity relationship.
1994
The recently isolated acetophenone glucoside androsin, as the major antiasthmatic principle of Picrorhiza kurroa Royle ex Benth. (Scrophulariaceae), was used as a lead compound for detailed structure-activity relationship studies. More than 25 synthesized or commercially available acetophenones with modified substitution patterns were screened in the Plethysmographic guinea pig model using PAF and/or ovalbumin as challenging agents for the generation of bronchial constriction. Whereas the aglycones in most cases were more effective than the corresponding glycosides, substitution patterns in position 3 and 4 of the phenyl ring and the keto function attached to the phenyl ring were found to b…
Cycloartane-type Glycosides from Two Species of Astragalus (Fabaceae)
2009
Three known cycloartane-type glycosides were isolated from the roots of two different species of Astragalus, A. glycyphyllos, A. sempervirens. The identification of these compounds were mainly achieved by 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques and FAB-MS. The results of our studies confirm that triterpene saponins from the cycloartane-type skeleton might be chemotaxonomically significant to the genus Astragalus.
Phytochemistry of Weigela x “kosteriana variegata” (Caprifoliaceae)
2018
One new triterpene glycoside 3- O-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→4)-[β-D-glucopyranosyl-(1→3)]-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→4)-β-D-xylopyranosyl-(1→3)-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl-(1→2)-α-L-arabinopyranosyloleanolic acid, was isolated from Weigela x “kosteriana variegata” (Caprifoliaceae), with three known ones. Their structures were characterized by a combination of mass spectrometry and 1D and 2D NMR spectrocopic techniques including 1H- and 13C NMR, COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC experiments. The toxicological properties of some glycosides were determined with a zebrafish-based assay. The results show that the most active compounds were toxic to the larvae in the range of 1 μM.
Steroidal saponins from Chlorophytum deistelianum
2016
Abstract Phytochemical investigation of the aerial parts of Chlorophytum deistelianum led to the isolation of four previously undescribed steroidal saponins called chlorodeistelianosides A–D with five known ones. Their structures were established mainly by extensive 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopic techniques and mass spectrometry as (25R)-3β-[(β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[α- l -rhamnopyranosyl-(1 → 4)]-β- d -xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)-[β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)]-β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β- d -galactopyranosyl)oxy]-5α-spirostan-12-one, (24S,25S)-24-[(β- d -glucopyranosyl)oxy]-3β-[(β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 2)-[β- d -xylopyranosyl-(1 → 3)]-β- d -glucopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-β- d -galactopyranosyl)ox…
